Bobby Perkins, age 64, of Woodbine, KY, passed away on Wednesday, March 4, 2026, at Hillcrest Health Care.

Back in the day, Bobby loved to dance. Listening to the radio and watching westerns, on TV, were pastimes that he enjoyed. In the words of his sister, Shara, "Bobby was a good, good soul who would help anybody." Bobby was tired and ready to go to his heavenly home.

Born in Barbourville, KY, he was preceded in death by his parents, Billy Joe Perkins and Donna Hill Perkins; a brother, Paul Perkins and by a sister, Linda Perkins.

Bobby is survived by his siblings, Shara Diamond and husband Todd, and Kelvin Perkins. He is also survived by several nieces and nephews.
